Polished Silver Outback Wheelset, 650b, White Industries CLD hubs, ***Cosmetic Blem***

Wildness Awaits

***Small inconsistencies in polished finish. They don't meet our standards, but won't be noticeable after your first ride.***

These wheels started as a special project with very limited runs which resulted in an overwhelming response to make more... so we listened! We buckled down and engineered our polishing process so we can offer these wheels as a consistent stock option. They're a still chance to bring something truly unique to your bike without the wait for a small batch run like before. 

The Outback is designed for long-distance travel on dirt – from xc mtb epics to XL gravel rigs. The 25mm internal width is built for adventuring, be that on xc mtb trails or endless gravel. 

We’ve improved the stiffness, strength and longevity of all our gravel and trail wheels by using an asymmetric (ASYM) rim design than improves spoke tension balance by up to 30%. 

The White Industries CLD hubset has led the industry in reliability and serviceability for over a decade. A titanium free-hub, fast engagement and full serviceability earn it fans in every cycling discipline.

All Astral Cycling wheels are hand-build in Eugene, Oregon and feature Tubeless Easy rims you can easily set up at home.
